"Almost single-
handedly,
the PTC has become a national clearing house for, and arbiter of, decency..."
Time Magazine, 4/28/05
"The PTC is arguably the most powerful single
force in broadcasting today. With 20 full-time staff employees manning offices
in Los Angeles and Virginia, the PTC does what the FCC does not – it monitors
all network programming. When its reviewers find something they believe objectionable,
the PTC mobilizes its mailing list to use form letters to complain to the FCC." Austin Chronicle 2/18/05
"The
PTC was a major force in the public outcry over Janet Jackson's breast-baring
Super Bowl half-time performance last year. By the organization's estimate,
one-fourth of the 530,828 complaints that poured in came from council members
or those informed of the performance by the group's e-mail alert."

"The Parents Television Council is
